Assurance

Chapter 2

Raven's POV
After visiting some of the restaurants that needed my attention. I looked at my watch to check what time it was great it's already 5:50 pm.

"Hey Lucy, I will be taking my leave right about now I have a dinner to attend to" Lucy is one of the managers at my main restaurant and also a close friend of mine.

"Is it a date? If not I could set you up with someone I know, who is also single and ready to mingle" I rolled my eyes at her excitement.

See Lucy here, wants me to step out of my comfort zone and have fun because I'm 25 years young, beautiful, free, sexy and I know it, but also miserable at the same time, her words not mine.

"No, it's not a date and you know I'm never going on a blind date that you set up for me ever again remember last time" I spoke irritatedly.

The last time I went on a date was back in college Lucy, Amara and I went to the same college and were roommates.

Lucy was the wild one, Amara was the quiet yet sneaky one when she wants to be.
Whereas, I was the plain old Jane who always wore comfy clothes didn't care how they looked on me but as long as they felt good on my body that's what I only cared about and I was bullied because of my figure.

Maybe, that's why Toni rejected me so that he can have someone that was in his league someone he could show off.

I was called "Fatty Birdie" throughout high school and that nickname followed me all the way to junior year in college.

I wasn't insecure about my body never was and never have because the beautiful angels I call best friends never felt embarrassed about been seen with me.

Whenever we were in public they made me feel comfortable and they always had my back.

Until the time, I had to go to my physical, the doctor told me I needed to lose some weight because I was becoming obese and almost reaching a diabetic stage, and could seriously harm my health.

That's when I decided to start working out and eating healthy.

Watching my transformation guys started to ask me out on dates and I accepted but whenever I went on dates the guys always ordered me a salad and water I always let it go and shrugged it off.

Back to the last time I was talking about,  Lucy was when we were in college she set me up on a date with her then boyfriend's best friend Jonas.

He asked me out and I said yes with any hesitation.

We had a lots of fun during the date but when it was time to go eat, he tried to order for me a dry ass egg salad.

I cut him off and told the waitress to get me the messiest meal on their menu and this Jonas had the audacity to tell mutter something under his breath "fatties don't deserve to eat nice things" I ignored his comment that he thought I didn't hear.

When the food came I dug in eating, then I looked up from my plate to see Jonas stopped eating with a disgusted look on his face but I didn't care.

I continued on eating because I was hungry and I'm paying for it.
Jonas got up and walked out the restaurant and waited for me to finish eating at least he was a gentleman but not for long when he drove me back to my apartment he tried to force me to have sex with him I told him no, but he didn't listen until I had to bring out my switch blade and taser.

That's when he walked away and yelled "NOBODY WANTED TO FUCK YOU ANYWAY!!!" I rolled my eyes and walked into my apartment ever since then I never went on any more dates again.

I came out of my trance when I realized
Lucy was waving her hands in front of my face "Raven are you alright? You seem out of it" She asked me worriedly.

"I'm good, thank for today and call me to inform me about the renovating details" I said calmly.

"Oh...ok bye" Lucy said with uncertainty.

Time Skip...

When I got home, took a shower and lotioned my body with my coconut and vanilla lotion, put on a minimal amount of makeup and picked yellow off the shoulder sundress.

I walked out of my house and made it into my car to begin my one hour journey to the Harris Mansion not knowing what this dinner has in store for me...
